Family Activities

Featuring some of the coast’s most child friendly beaches and activities, Anglesea has long been recognised as a family holiday destination of choice. With almost all activities accessible by foot or bike, Anglesea invites its guests into a slower pace of life, providing all the simple things that make a holiday relaxing and enjoyable for everyone.

Of all the ‘must do’ family activities in Anglesea, below are some of our favourites.

Jumpz Anglesea

Jumpz Anglesea is a trampoline playground where you can literally jump off the walls. The outdoor facility is ideal for families and friends, offering 360 degrees of trampoline fun, plus The Deck hang out and games area, two bocce courts, coin operated BBQs and a licenced Kiosk (open during the summer school holidays).

The Jumpz Anglesea trampoline area is lined with trampolines covering the floors and walls, providing hours of fun for you and your mates as you flip forward, backwards, sideways and reach for the sky!

Anglesea Paddle and Canoe

Located opposite the Great Ocean Road Resort on the Anglesea River, Anglesea Paddle and Canoe offers a range of watercrafts for rent, including canoes, low powered motor boats and aqua bikes. The watercrafts are available to rent most days of the year, with the facility also able to cater for larger school and community groups.

Hiring a canoe from Anglesea Paddle and Canoe is a great way to explore the various arms of the Anglesea River. Pack a picnic and stop off at one of the river’s several private piers for a spectacular lunch location.

Go Ride A Wave

Go Ride A Wave is one of Austalia’s leading centres for surf lessons, providing a safe and friendly progression path for beginner through to more experienced surfers. The company has access to several of Anglesea’s favourite beaches, maximising the chance of finding a wave perfect for your level.

Go Ride A Wave also rents surfboards, SUPs and wetsuits from their Anglesea store. Given the coast is a world famous surf destination, it is a ‘must do’ on any visit.

Anglesea Mini Golf

Anglesea Golf Club is internationally renowned for the kangaroos that call its well manicured fairways, home. The course has been featured in publications such as the Lonely Planet and is one of the ‘must sees’ on the Surf Coast.

Anglesea Mini Golf, located opposite the course’s clubhouse, provides the ideal outing for a family. Once you’ve claimed your mini victory, make sure you check out the bistro for a counter meal with a spectacular view over the course.
